"I made this on Saturday to have for lunch with a homemade celery soup. My husband woofed it down with cut wedges of cheese before I could get the pita toasted. I used Tortilla bread instead of the Pita. They were perfect using the same baking instructions.

I modified the recipe for the dip slightly. I cut the recipe in half because I thought it would make too much for just the two of us. Silly me! I left out the water & sugar. I substituted the sour cream with cream cheese. I have already sent this recipe to two of my sisters & two girlfriends. As my husband said, "This is definitely a keeper!""

"We don't care for sweet dips, so I did not add any sugar, but did add a heaping tablespoon prepared horseradish and a heaping tablespoon spicy brown mustard. Yummy. I will serve it next week, so we shall see what the crowd says."
